OPERATION OF BRIQEETTING ROLLER PRESSES WITH AN ASYMMETRICAL COMPACTION UNIT

Journal Title: Journal of Machine Construction and Maintenance - Year 2018, Vol 109, Issue 2

Abstract

The key issue in the briquetting process in a roll press is to properly customise the working surface. The conventional symmetrical compaction units employed in roller presses are often unsuitable for the consolidation of materials that show quasi-plastic properties or those which show significant elastic deformation after the pressure is removed. This is caused by the fact that ready-made briquettes tend to remain in moulding cavities or crack along the parting plane. This problem can be solved by using asymmetrical compaction units. They make it possible to expand the range of fine-grained materials, especially those which are hardly consolidable in a roll press and which can be used to make briquettes with satisfactory quality indexes. This article outlines the basics of the operation of roller presses equipped with asymmetrical compaction units and their current evolution.
